A diary of a super normal teenager

A friend in need

        I woke up at 7:00 this morning, and not wanting to waste time I had a quick shower and breakfast. I got into running gear and decide to make good use of a sunny morning. I ran around for around 20 minutes and stopped for a water break. 'Is that Elizabeth Reba?' I heard from behind me. No-one had called me 'Elizabeth' in four years. I looked behind me. It was my old friend Steph. 'Steph, how are you? What's it been three, four years?' She had shoulder length blonde hair and hazel eyes. 'Ever since my family have been travelling around Europe I've been super busy' She said with a plastered on grin. I remembered why I didn't try contact her. She was one of those rich people who boasted about their richness. I decide that my walk was done and made up some fake excuse to go home.

        I got home and had some lunch. After I had gotten changed I checked my phone and I had fifteen missed calls from Allison and one text from Xavier that said, 'Can you come over?' I cycled over to his house. We didn't live that far away from each other. As soon as I arrived I saw Allison's bike, Xavier's parents cars and a black Honda. I knocked on the door and Allison answered. 'Come into the sitting room.' She said wearily. There I saw Xavier's mom and him holding hands with tears in their eyes. His father was sitting on another couch talking to someone who seemed to be a lawyer. Allison pulled me aside. 'Xavier's parents are getting the files to divorce.' She said in a low voice

        I was shocked. Nancy and Bill Reynolds seemed almost like a model couple. Never fighting always so happy. I guess you'd never know. 'They only told Xavier today and his Dad is moving out within the week. We sat on the couch with Xavier, but didn't say anything until the lawyer left. His mom went into her bedroom and his dad went into his office. It was silent for a while. 'I'm going to be staying with my mom for now.' Xavier said breaking the silence. Allison gave made a side hug. 'I'll call my mom and ask her if I can stay over,' She said. 'I'll do the same.' I said getting my phone from my purse. My mom packed a bag and brought it to Xavier's. Thankfully she packed the diary, and after Allison and Xavier were asleep I wrote this entry. See you tomorrow diary...
